Long activity may culminate in heatstroke.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less.
